Surprise is a female Pegasus pony and a member of the aerial acrobatics group, the Wonderbolts. She first appears in The Ticket Master. She is not named in the show, but she is named in merchandise.

Design

Surprise has the same coat and mane colors as Lauren Faust's concept art of Pinkie Pie, based on a G1 Pegasus mare also named Surprise; as a female Pegasus from the IDW comics' Micro-Series Issue #8, who appears in a flashback as a filly resembling G1 Baby Surprise; as the Pegasus mare Breezie from the fifth wave of mystery pack toys and collector cards; and as the Heather Nuhfer Pegasus mare from the IDW comics' Friendship is Magic Issue #8. Surprise usually has the same mane and tail style as "Blaze" and "Nightingale", but when shown without her uniform on, instead has Pinkie's mane and tail style as in Faust's concept art.

Depiction in the series

Surprise first appears in Rainbow Dash's imagination in The Ticket Master alongside S01E03 Unnamed Pegasus Stallion #1 and "Blaze". Rainbow imagines herself impressing the Wonderbolts that they let her join them. She later appears in The Best Night Ever, once again in Rainbow Dash's fantasy of flying with the Wonderbolts as well as in the Wonderbolts' V.I.P. section at the Grand Galloping Gala.

Surprise, with her mane a darker shade of yellow, appears as one of the Pegasi fighting against a monstrous Spike in Secret of My Excess, alongside "Blaze" and "High Winds". Spike traps her and her fellow Wonderbolts inside a water tower. Near the end of the episode, when they're finally freed, Surprise trembles with fear before striking a heroic pose and flying off with "Blaze" and "High Winds".

Surprise later appears with her usual mane color in Rainbow Falls, watching the Cloudsdale cheerleaders.
